Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a crucial constituent of the outer membrane of most Gram-
negative bacteria, playing a fundamental role in the protection of bacteria from …

Structural determination of carbohydrates is mostly performed by liquid-state NMR, and it is
a demanding task because the NMR signals of these biomolecules explore a rather narrow …

The primary sequence of a biopolymer encodes the essential information for folding,
permitting to carry out sophisticated functions. Inspired by natural biopolymers, peptide and …

Direct α‐functionalization of NH2‐free glycinates with relatively weak electrophiles such as
α, β‐unsaturated esters still remains a big challenge in organic synthesis. With chiral …

Aldehyde catalysts have proven to be highly effective in facilitating and accelerating a wide
range of challenging transformations in organic chemistry. This article is structured into three …

Tolyporphins A–R constitute fundamentally distinct members of the tetrapyrrole pigments of
life family. The 18 members present diversity at multiple levels including the chromophore …

Michael addition reactions between nucleophilic glycine equivalents and α, β-unsaturated
carboxylic acid derivatives represent the most methodologically concise and generalized …

Diazabicyclo [5.4. 0] undec‐7‐ene (DBU) catalyzed Michael addition reactions between α, β‐
